Whats Looking Good JUNE 2025

I re seeded the lawn last Monday and took this picture on 21st June
Today picture 24th surprising what a little bit of green can do to set the borders off, and how fast dwarf rye can germinate and grow

 

Thanks Pete garden filling in now and the pergola still standing wisteria is on its way up can't remember the variety name the one with really long flowers .

 

Who needs the Chelsea Flower Show when you see all these fabulous photos of plants in members gardens. Fabulous photos and stunning plants.

 

I'm jealous of the eremurus @Perki - I've always failed with them!

 

Yes, thank you. I only have one rose as T'other Half does not like them, because they have thorns ... but he likes Bougainvilla and Lantana!

My one is Sunseeker, an 18 inch minature which I brought here in 2001 and it is now up and over the shed ...

 

Some afternoon photos in my upper garden.

 

An amazing variety of colours and shapes there @Perki

 

I love the concrete sink ... is it real or man made? I have the old sink from our house in Bucks.

 

Thank you @Victoria, it’s made from a composite material, and heavy when full. Your sink looks great there .

It took a good few years and attempts to get them flowering , I could keep them alive ( rear garden ) but getting them to flower was the trickiest, apparently don't like overcrowding which is hard for me especially how I ram in that extra plant

 

Oh well, no chance for me then! I'm always expecting plants to "budge up" when I add another!

 

The harebells are early this year

Helenium fest!

 

Picked some more sweet peas. They were sown from seeds collected from last year plants which had been sown from the previous year etc etc. We just love how the colours have stayed true to form. The fragrance is fabulous. Have to check for greenfly before bringing them in but thankfully very few.
